Wolves' Rubio returns after almost three months

Ricky Rubio was back in the starting lineup for the Minnesota Timberwolves on Monday night after missing 42 games over nearly three months because of an ankle injury.

The game at Dallas was Rubio's first since severely spraining his left ankle Nov. 7 at Orlando.

Rubio had 10 points on 4-of-9 shooting with four assists in 21 minutes.
